Everything you need to know about our mini bag sealers: how they work, which bags they can reseal, how to charge them, how to look after them, and how ordering works. If your question is not here, write to us<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Understanding your sealer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
What does a mini bag sealer actually do?<\/summary>\n

It closes an opened plastic bag with heat. When you run the warm part of the sealer along the top of the bag, the two plastic layers soften slightly and stick together, which creates a new seam. It is the same principle used to close many packets in the factory, in a pocket-sized, rechargeable tool you can keep in the kitchen.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Why use a sealer instead of a clip?<\/summary>\n

A clip pinches the bag; a sealer closes it along its whole width. The bag stays flat, takes less room in the cupboard and does not open if it falls over. Our sealers also include a cutter, so you can open the bag again neatly when you need it.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Which model should I choose?<\/summary>\n

The Compact USB Mini Bag Sealer<\/a> is the simplest and smallest option for everyday snack bags. The Magnetic Mini Bag Sealer<\/a> lets you choose the sealing time, from 2 to 16 seconds, which helps with thicker bags, and shows the battery level on its display. The Cat Paw Mini Bag Sealer<\/a> has the same everyday functions in a playful cat paw shape.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

What are the 6 levels on the Magnetic model?<\/summary>\n

Each level is a sealing time: P1 2 s, P2 4 s, P3 6 s, P4 8 s, P5 12 s and P6 16 s. The manufacturer suggests P1\u2013P2 for thin bags, P3\u2013P4 for regular bags and P5\u2013P6 for thicker ones. Start low and go up one level at a time if the seam does not hold.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Bags and packaging<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Which bags can I seal?<\/summary>\n

Heat sealers work on plastic bags such as crisp, biscuit, cereal, snack and pet food bags (PP and PE, and PVC for the Compact USB model). Each product page lists what its model is made for.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Which bags are not suitable?<\/summary>\n

Cling film, cellophane, kraft paper bags and pure aluminium foil bags. These materials do not melt and bond the way plastic films do, so the seal will not hold, and paper can scorch.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

How do I get a clean, strong seal?<\/summary>\n
